Who We Are
Neurodivergent District is a community for autistic and neurodivergent adults in the Washington, D.C. area who want to build genuine friendships based on trust, respect, and acceptance. Most members are between 25 and 45. While the group started with mostly men, we now have a growing number of women and non-binary members. Whether you have a diagnosis, think you might be neurodivergent, or simply want to meet new people, you’re welcome here.
About the Organizer
Founded by Kate Inez Harrington, a neurodivergent-centered matchmaker and coach, this group was created to offer inclusive, joyful spaces for adults seeking connection. Learn more at harringtonmatchmaking.com.

To stay in touch, join our WhatsApp chat. Meetup messages can get lost! If you’re able, donations help cover event costs and keep gatherings affordable for everyone.
